Good Times On Halloween

What a CrAzY time of year! I love Halloween, but by the time it actually gets here, I have just about had it. This year was no exception. It started thursday evening with the Meadow Ward Halloween Party which is always a good time.

Friday morning was a just plain HeCtic trying to get the kids all dressed up, painted, and ready for the ScHooL CaRniVaL that the PTA puts on every year. They do such a great job, and the kids have a blast at it. They have asked me to help the past two years, and it is SO much fun to see all the kids dressed up so cute. Let me tell ya, this year I was in charge of the Witch Hat Ring Toss game and by the end of the day, I honestly had done at least a thousand lunges and squats picking up all the rings. My legs were sore for days after, but it was still a lot of fun.

After school Mo and I were stupid enough to think it would be fun to take the kids to SpOoKy StOrY hOuR at the Library in Fillmore. Now that was wild! I don't know what we were thinking, but the kids had fun there too.

By the time we needed to get the kids ready for TrIcK or TrEaTinG my nerves were completely shot. I know, I know, for those of you who know me, you would never believe that :) But, we got them ready and headed out. They had a great time, and of course got way too much candy.

Jeremy loves to dress up for school and this year he was a hit. He even had that redneck southern accent that he spoke with which had everyone bustin up.

Carson and Brock were both Darth Vader. Carson decided not to wear his mask because it hurt his face (the costume looks much better with the mask, but whatever!)
Bryson and Kaleb were both Vampires. Look at Kaleb's freaky face!!! Every picture was a tad bit scary. What a kid.

Here are all 4 girlies. Carlie was Tinkerbelle, Addi was Snow White, Tylie was a Ladybug, and Kamryn was a Witch. It gets a little crazy when the girls are all together, but they have a lot of fun together! Carlie was insistent that Kamryn needed her witch hat on, but Kamryn didn't think so!

Here's my little TyLiE bUg! Doesn't she just look so sweet and innocent??? Yep, she can fool anyone with that sweet little smile!

Here's the GirLs... Kelsey, Me, Skyler, and Mo. I am so glad that they came down to the ward party, it just isn't the same without them living in Meadow anymore! What are we gonna do when Sky leaves us and goes to college next year? We have a good time hangin out and chattin:)

The kids love goin to Great Grandma & Grandpa's house. Of course they spoil them rottin and let them pick WAY too much candy! I love these pictures we got of them with the kids.

What a cute pic of ALL the kids (except Kamryn who had already had enough at this point) with Great Grandma & Grandpa.
Addi and Great Grandpa. What a little cheeser!

I LOVE this sweet picture of my Grandma & Grandpa Beckstrand. How cute are they? We are so lucky to live right next door to them. My kids love to walk over and visit, and of course get treats. What great examples they are to me in every aspect of their lives!
